Patch for xorg ati driver ignored by Fedora

[Timothy Murphy]

X stopped working properly under FC2 on my Sony Picturebook (C1VFK) -
it was impossible to run with bpp greater than 8.

But I recently found that there is a tiny patch
which completely solves this problem at
<http://freedesktop.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=591>

I don't understand why this patch which is almost 6 months old
is not applied to recent xorg rpms
particularly as the bugzilla marks the problem as solved?
